I had a conversation recently with someone juggling two hospitality jobs just to make ends meet. It really highlighted how compensation impacts our quality of life. Do you think the industry is moving toward more sustainable pay, or are multiple jobs the norm now?

I think the problems with compensation may have turned into a long-term issue already. There are a lot of minimum wages jobs that were always viewed as temporary or starter jobs, but now people tend to stay in them. And they're simply not jobs that will ever pay well, which leads to the situation you describe, of people forced to work multiple jobs.

Agreed.

It isn't, and the broader country/world aren't either. Retail and hospitality aren't the only industries where having multiple jobs or side hustles is the norm. It's becoming part of life everywhere.

It's terrible.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
